No Guarantee (2/1), Stinginhisstep (9/2), Hill Station (5/1), Square Du Roule (7/1), Lady Henrietta (15/2), Songo (14/1), Charlie My Boy (16/1), Baikal (18/1), Colonel Lesley (22/1), Whispering Royal (25/1), Catboy (25/1), Greystoke (66/1), Ben Lomond (66/1)

The pick of several viable candidates could be LADY HENRIETTA, who shaped well when returning to action for her new yard at Worcester and, with that run under her belt and now 3 lb lower, she is pretty appealing. It's surely only a matter of time before Hill Station deservedly gets his head in front in this sphere and he is feared most, with No Guarantee, also a maiden in this sphere, and Whispering Royal strongly considered.
